Password Expires in 60 days

A computer club member with Window Vista Home Premium has asked how to stop
the message that reads: " Password Expires in 60 days" without removing the
password from his system? Our group of "experts" had no clue, including
myself.

Any thoughts?

Have you checked the Group Policy setting that controls password expiration?

Run GPEDIT.msc > Computer > Windows > Security > Password policy > Maximum
password validity > Set to 0

Best,

So how was a password expiry date set up in Home Premium in the first place?
AFAIK there is no function when setting up user accounts to do that...
